Fog Lamps
Use fog lamps for better vision in foggy or misty
conditions.
The fog lamps control is located on the
multifunction lever next to the exterior lamp
control.
-(Fog Lamps):Turning the band to this
position will turn the fog lamps on.
When you turn the fog lamps on, the fog lamp
light will appear on the instrument panel cluster
to indicate that the fog lamps and the parking
lamps are on.
If you turn the high-beam headlamps on, the
fog lamps will turn off. They will turn on again
when you switch to low-beam headlamps.
The ignition must be on for the fog lamps to
operate.
Some localities have laws that require the
headlamps to be on along with the fog lamps.
Twilight Sentinel®
Twilight Sentinel®can turn your lamps on and off
for you. A light sensor on top of the instrument
panel makes the Twilight Sentinel
®work, so
be sure it is not covered.
With Twilight Sentinel
®, you will see the following
happen:
When it is dark enough outside, the front
turn signal lamps (DRL) will go off, and
the headlamps and parking lamps will come
on. The other lamps that come on with
headlamps will also come on.
When it is bright enough outside, the
headlamps will go off, and the front turn signal
lamps (DRL) will come on, as long as the
exterior lamp switch is in the AUTO position.
If you start your vehicle in a dark garage, the
automatic headlamp system will come on
immediately. Once you leave the garage, it will
take about one minute for the automatic headlamp
system to change to DRL if it is light outside. During
that delay, your instrument panel cluster may not
be as bright as usual. Make sure your instrument
panel brightness control is in full bright position.
SeeInstrument Panel Brightness on page 172.

Head-Up Display (HUD)
{CAUTION:
If the HUD image is too bright, or too
high in your eld of view, it may take you
more time to see things you need to see
when it is dark outside. Be sure to keep
the HUD image dim and placed low in your
eld of view.
If your vehicle has the Head-Up Display (HUD), you
can see some of the driver information that appears
on the instrument panel cluster.
The information may be displayed in English or
metric units and appears as an image focused out
toward the front of your vehicle. The HUD consists
of the following information:
Speedometer
Turn Signal Indicators
High-Beam Indicator Symbol
Tachometer
Manual Paddle Shift Gear Indicator
(If Equipped)
These displays on the HUD are for use when
using the manual paddle shift controls to shift
the transmission. See “Manual Paddle Shift” in
Automatic Transmission Operation on page 95.
Shift Light
This light is used for performance driving to
indicate that the vehicle’s best performance
level has been reached to shift the transmission
into the next higher gear. An arrow pointing up
will light up on the display just prior to reaching
the engine fuel cut-off mode. This cut-off is
about 6,500 RPM for the LS2 engine and
7,000 RPM for the LS7 engine.

If your vehicle has the Bose®audio system, it
includes Bose®AudioPilot®noise compensation
technology. When turned on, AudioPilot®
continuously adjusts the audio system to
compensate for background noise, so that the
music always sounds the same at the set volume
level. This feature is most effective at lower radio
volume settings where background noise can affect
how well you hear the music being played. At
higher volume settings, where the music is much
louder than the background noise, there could be
little or no adjustments by AudioPilot
®.
To use AudioPilot
®, set the radio volume to your
desired level. Turn AudioPilot®on by pressing the
automatic volume button until AVOL ON displays.
As the vehicle goes faster, the background noise
increases. AudioPilot
®adjusts the audio system’s
sound level to overcome background noise. To turn
AudioPilot
®off, press the automatic volume button
until AVOL OFF displays. For additional information
on AudioPilot
®, visit www.bose.com/audiopilot.

Remember: ABS does not change the time you
need to get your foot up to the brake pedal
or always decrease stopping distance. If you get
too close to the vehicle in front of you, you will
not have time to apply the brakes if that vehicle
suddenly slows or stops. Always leave enough
room up ahead to stop, even though you
have ABS.
Using ABS
Do not pump the brakes. Just hold the brake
pedal down rmly and let anti-lock work for you.
You might hear a motor or clicking noise and
feel the brake pedal move a little during a stop,
but this is normal.
Braking in Emergencies
With ABS, you can steer and brake at the same
time. In many emergencies, steering can help you
more than even the very best braking.
Traction Control System (TCS)
Your vehicle has a traction control system called
TCS that limits wheel spin. This is especially useful
in slippery road conditions. The system operates
only if it senses that the rear wheels are spinning
too much or are beginning to lose traction.
When this happens, the system works the rear
brakes and reduces engine power (by closing the
throttle and managing engine spark) to limit
wheel spin.
The TRACTION SYSTEM ACTIVE message
displays on the Driver Information Center (DIC)
when the TCS system is limiting wheel spin.
SeeDIC Warnings and Messages on page 214.
You may feel or hear the system working,
but this is normal.
If your vehicle is in cruise control when the
TCS system begins to limit wheel spin, the cruise
control will automatically disengage. When
road conditions allow you to safely use it again,
you may re-engage the cruise control. See
Turn Signal/Multifunction Lever on page 160.
